We continue to be excited about FlashForward.

The upcoming ABC drama will focus on a global phenomenon, as everyone on the planet blacks out for two minutes, is catapulted to April 2010 and then returned to their normal, everyday lives.

What the heck happens during this time period? We'll need to tune in and find out.

But the following images, courtesy of FlashForward's opening episode, depict some sort of major catastrophe. They feature a pair of key characters, Mark Benford and Demetri Noah, both of whom work for the FBI.

Click on each photo for a closer look at what they're dealing with on the show:
